Heavy Metal Backed Base Materials
Superior adhesion between printed circuit board and metal
In the microwave industry, many applications require printed circuit boards (PCBs) being mounted onto thick metal casings mostly for thermal considerations. AGC's product range encompasses laminates with heavy metal backing that exhibit superior adhesion between printed circuit board and metal. The combination of PCB and metal gives the opportunity to consolidate two assemblies thereby reducing overall manufacturing costs.
